World War II Documentary Collection DVD Box Set
An extensive eight disc collection of archive documentaries tracing the Second World War from the rise of Nazi Germany and the Battle of Britain to the conflict in the Pacific and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
This copy comes from my dad's personal collection. Dad was an actor and scriptwriter with a genuine interest in history and documentary film, particularly material that preserved important events and allowed later generations to understand their consequences. His collection remains an important part of Kate's Treasures15, with each title now looking for a new home where it can continue to be appreciated.
This eight disc World War II Documentary Collection follows the conflict across Europe, Britain, Russia, the United States and the Pacific through original archive footage, historical commentary and films produced during and after the war.
Prelude to War examines the political conditions that helped create the path towards global conflict, while The Nazis Strike and Divide & Conquer trace Nazi Germany's rapid expansion across Europe.
The Battle of Britain examines the aerial campaign fought above Britain, while The Battle of Russia turns to the devastating struggle on the Eastern Front and the enormous military and civilian losses it produced.
The collection continues with Fury in the Pacific and War Comes to America before concluding with Hiroshima and Nagasaki, examining the catastrophic use of atomic weapons against Japan.
Several films in the collection originated as wartime information or propaganda productions. They remain historically significant records but should be viewed with an understanding of the political purpose, language and national perspective behind their creation.
A substantial collection for those interested in military history, archive film and documentary material examining the political, military and human realities of the Second World War.
